Abstract
In an embodiment, a care-of address associated with a first node coupled to a communications network via an access node is received. The care-of address may be contained in a notification message sent by a home agent associated with the first node or by a binding update message sent by the first agent. The access node is identified using the care-of address. A request to tap communications associated with the first node at the access node is generated and the request is forwarded to the access node to cause communications associated with the first node to be tapped at the access node.
